WHAT IT DOES

What plane-module-remove-issue does on Plane

AI agents use plane-module-remove-issue to create or update resources in Plane — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Plane environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why plane-module-remove-issue needs a policy

Removing an issue from a module disassociates it but does not delete the issue itself. The issue and module both continue to exist; the relationship is removed, which is a reversible write operation (the issue can be re-added). This is analogous to the sibling tool plane-cycle-remove-issue, which removes an issue from a cycle without destroying anything.
